1 - Are you happy with your player's performance so far this season?
 
A- HAHAHAHA, No. 4 goals and 6 assists. Not good enough. I want to help my team so i need to get these numbers up. 
 
2 - Do you have individual statistical goals for your player?
A- I do. In the long run i would love to be a 35 plus goal scorer and 90 plus points. I know it's a journey to get there but it's the goal. 
 
3 - Do you do anything special during the summer? 
A- not really. We like to get away for a bit and visit someplace different. Unless we want to relax on the beach and then it's basically the same place every year.
 
4 - Does your player do anything special during the summer months? 
A- Ya, Normally a 2 week bora bora get away, then goes home to see the family for a week. Then it's back to training.
 
5 - If you and your player were going out to dinner, what kind of food would you both want?
A- Tough one. I guess it would depend where we were. In Italy, Pizza, Montreal, smoke meat, Ect. One thing that is for sure, there would be meat.
 
6 - Do you have any questions for me [Der Meister]? 
A - not really. Honestly this is my first Warsaw presser so i'll figure out something in a few weeks and then pick on you. lol

The Offseason ft. Siyan Yasilievich
 

 
An unlikely story while relaxing
 
Siyan Yasilievich is coming off of a continental cup, making the miracle run from the wildcard play-ins round all the way to winning it all. He took down many familiar opponents on his path, but one thing is for certain, he had a fantastic team to do it with. Siyan put up 26 points in 23 games played with a +7 in the playoffs, his best performance of his entire career. Now though, Siyan is taking his time off in London, enjoying the nice cool water and relaxing on the beach. When he had his day with the cup, he ended up traveling home, bringing it to his family and friends, taking multiple pictures with them and the cup. He said it was a "once in a lifetime" experience and that he will never be able to do something like that ever again. Regardless though, Siyan was on the beaches of London and enjoying the nice cool breeze, when he was approached by a young child who walked up to him holding a jersey. The kid was no older than five years old and Siyan was confused at first as the kid seemed very shy and nervous. The kid asked Siyan, "I'm a big fan of you and I saw you lying down on your chair.. can you please sign my jersey", as he held out a London United jersey with Yasilievich's name and number. Siyan was extremely shocked and slightly emotional as this was the first time someone walked up to him in public for an autograph in London. In Davos, people knew who Siyan was and he would sign autographs or take pictures all the time, but in London, he wasn't as well known since he was a newcomer to the team. Of course, Siyan signed the jersey for the child and also took a picture with the family who eventually caught up to the child who was running as fast as he could to see Siyan. Siyan then asked the young couple what the kids name was, to which they said, "Alex, he's a little troublemaker, but he's a huge hockey fan and he hopes one day that he can play just like you!" Alex also added that he hoped that he could be "just as good as Siyan, maybe even better", one day. Siyan had tears forming in his eyes before he wiped them away and he told Alex that if he kept at it, he too could one day become a superstar! The young couple then thanked Siyan and they walked away holding Alex's hand who was wearing the autographed jersey on his back as they walked off into the distance, until they couldn't be seen anymore. Siyan then sat back down on his chair with the ocean splashing up against his feet. He then inhaled, looked into the distance at the sunset, smiled, and exhaled. He knew this was the pinnacle of his career and nothing could beat this moment.
 
Some very important lore for the future 👀

1- The first was a very uneven match in our favor, but I have a feeling that everyone didn't want to take any chances and just dialed in, no matter the opponent.
2- SD is a great team but this team is just so well rounded I don't see us failing to produce like we did in Round 1.
3- I am, very interesting to see if an upset happens or if the projected team wins, personal it's nice to get a feel for everyone.
4- Cole is a strong GM, I see us making it under his leadership, no matter Zed think.
5- Mikko is still getting used to the playoffs but still has numbers and is helping people Willams and Roux Jr produce and that's what matters to me.
6- Every final 4 has meaning to but I think a heavyweight match up of the Canes and Knight would be so cool.
 

1. Gonna be tough 3-1 rn got lucky in the second sim cause of how trash of a goalie SDM has. I'm hopeful we are just as good if not better and only need 1 to get to the finals.
2. SDM is a tough opponent gonna have to pull out all the stops. We can't let them reverse sweep 3 games, 1 win, that's all we need.
3. Of course gotta keep tabs on that fraud of a GM @vincentlg2007 to see if he gets lucky and we get to destroy the Hounds in the finals.
4. He's trying his hardest, the lines he sent in had us outshot 46-28 we got lucky that our team is a bunch of studs who don't stop fighting till the end. @badcolethetitan despite how genuinely terrible you are at your job the kings are gonna get you a founders cup!!!
5. Glagau is popping off right now. He knows it's his last chance at a founders cup and he is playing like it.
6. After Seattle got knocked out I stopped caring about it. Such a boring list of teams but if I had to guess Vegas vs Carolina and Vegas wins.

1. I'm very confident we can beat anyone in a 7 game series, Houston is no different ignore the stigma and beat them up.
2. Easy win everything place 1st and beat down everyone again in the playoffs. 
3. PK for sure I mean you gotta capitalize on your powerplay opportunities don't get me wrong but preventing goals should come first.
4. Obviously I'd want Williams to win but that shouldn't be a priority when the standings are so tight currently. Focus on winning the games and hopefully getting the most points comes along with it.
5. All this glazing up Cole makes me sick smh. Although that is hella impressive cool to see someone consistently at the top without tanking.
6. None, we got this. This ain't S74 we gonna win it all.

1- A successful stretch is taking a majority, I don't think a full sweep is possible so just a good solid 80%-90% win rate would be fine.
2- Tough choice, many people can win it but Williams, Ross, and Roux Jr are tied for me.
3- The regular season should still take priority as focusing solely on the playoffs will throw our grove off, but I think we should begin to get into that goove a bit.
4- I think Cole is smart for doing this as it may allow the lines to get better connected and may result in some better chemistry all around, maybe some later stars may appear.
5- Just about 15p on the season with a nice spit of 7g's and 8a's
6- 7 games no question, hard fought but Toronto might just edge out given the balance of the middle 6, Florida has a good team but weak bottom 6. In short Toronto in 7

1- Mexico has some games coming up against non-playoff teams. What would you consider a successful stretch against these teams?
 
2- who on Mexicos roster would you consider as a nominee for MVP?
 
3- final 20 games of the season. Mexico is all but clinched their ticket. Are you looking forward to the playoffs or are you still focused on the rest of the season?
 
4- Cole normally starts to tinker with his lineup at this point of the season. Stuff like playing a rookie goalie the rest of the way. Are you ok with Coles tactics? Or do you question his intentions?
 
5-  We are quickly approaching the end of the season. Given your CURRENT stats, what are your targets to end the seasons?
 
6- now that round 2 has started in the NHL. Give me your prediction between Toronto and Florida.

1-I like to think i've contributed some goals and assists but the winning streak is a team effort and not so much a solo effort from any one player.
2-I feel like it shows that Mexico is ready to play a two-way game by being explosive on the attack and smart on the defense.
3-I really think San Diego is our biggest rival as they have found ways to punch holes in our defense.
4-I doubt I have real rival as i'm still new to the league, but I mean there is always rivalry among me and my teammates to score.
5- I personally think we as a team are doing great and working well together, one or two trades may or may not hurt or benefit us.
6- I'm hoping the Kings can  pull it back.

1- This streak was only possible with entire team, there is no one person that I could credit with bring us this far, it definitely goes to the whole team.
2-I feel we still play a great two way game, the defense is still very much here but I feel like the offence has just seen a nice explosion that has really benefited us.
3-San D is the only team I would consider a direct rival, the bring a nice counter game that I really enjoy going up against.
4-I haven't been here long enough to say I have any rivals here but I always like to think that my linemates and I have a small bit a rivalry even if they don't agree
5-I don't think Coleh will want to move much of anything seeing as we are in a good place and the chemistry of this team has been fantastic, but that is just what I hope.
6-I always cheer for any Kings so I really do hope that the come back and slay the beast that is McD and Dris (I'm a big Kings fan)
